The option to 'receive' paypal payments is sadly not available in Nigeria.
You can only 'send' payments for purchases via a linked and confirmed credit card.

Paypal varies a lot country to country and can only offer the services that the banks / governments of that country allow it to offer.
There are quite a few countries unable to receive paypal payments.

Your best bet is to look into the options of receiving money via western union or moneygram?
